If you could go back in time, would you change anything or not

We Never Know

If you could go back in time....
1. would you change things in your life?
2. would you change nothing in your life?

I myself wouldn't change anything because if I did I wouldnt have lived the life I have lived, have my children and wife, or had my experiences and lessons. Everything I did and that's happened led me to the life I have. My life isn't and hasn't been perfect by far but I wouldn't trade any of it for anything.

There are a few places where I zigged where I would most definitely zag if I got the chance to go back and do it over.
Don't get me wrong. Like anyone I made many mistakes. There were times I should have zigged when I zagged. Change any zig or zag and it would have changed my path and wouldn't have the life I have or have lived.

Yes, of course there are things that I would change. That would, as @We Never Know pointed out, mean that I would live a different life than the one I've had. Okay -- and it might be better, it might be worse ... but it would be different! Nothing boring in that.

I get what you're saying, @We Never Know. Every event, every decision you've ever made is just one of the bricks that's gone into building the house that your dwelling in now.

Change any of those bricks and it wouldn't be the same structure.

I'd probably go back and be the guidance and support I didn't have in childhood, and leave the church much sooner rather than later.

No :) Because it is to late to change it when I have already made the mistake, the only thing i could do would be to learn from my mistakes, and not do them again.

Difficult to answer, there are several events that i wish would not have happened in my life but changing them would change me now, no thanks.

In one case it could even change the course of a war, sounds melodramatic but if somehow i prevented the Manchester bombing then events prompting the Good Friday agreement may not have been the same. Wow, i never thought of it like that before.

I learned a lot of things from choices I made. Would I repeat those bad choices? No.

Aye, I'd fix a few things too.

Now, for you...
